EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of the illustrated front cover for WW2 story book, "Shelter," written by Jane Nicholson in 1941, transports us back to a time of uncertainty and resilience during World War II. The image depicts a scene from wartime London, where families sought refuge in underground shelters to protect themselves from air raids. The detailed illustration captures the cramped conditions and somber atmosphere inside the shelter, as people huddle together for safety amidst the chaos of war. The artist has skillfully conveyed the fear and determination etched on their faces, highlighting the human experience of living through such turbulent times. "Shelter" is not just a story about survival; it is a testament to the strength and solidarity that emerged during one of history's darkest periods. Jane Nicholson's writing brings to life the struggles and triumphs of ordinary people caught up in extraordinary circumstances, reminding us of the sacrifices made by so many during WWII. As we gaze upon this poignant image, we are reminded of the importance of remembering our past and honoring those who endured unimaginable hardships for future generations. The March of Women Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online has preserved this piece of history for all to reflect upon and learn from.
